Joni Mitchell remains in a Los Angeles hospital after a month. Tonight it was announced that the 71 year old singer songwriter has slipped into a coma.

Very sadly, it does seem to be the case. Those early tweets claiming she was making a good recovery were not from her, and appear to have been untrue or exaggerated at best.

Awe that's so sad to hear she's a special lady with an amazing talent. It does appear that she may be leaving us

An amazing songwriter and the inspiration for so many of today's female singer songwriters.

What an upsetting situation. I love Joni's music and as vaskav37 says, she's inspired so many other musicians over time.

I hope a miracle happens and she comes through this.

"Contrary to rumors circulating on the Internet today, Joni is not in a coma"

So who announced that she was?

Her close friend Leslie Morris who just filed in court for Conservatorship or what we call in the UK, Power of Attorney. An attachment to the document states as the reason "At this time she remains unconscious, and unable to make any responses and is therefore unable to provide for any of her personal needs.' So I'm guessing it's true, unless Mr Morris turns out to be some very unpleasant fraudster.

Someone, somewhere is lying.

She can't be in a coma and not in a coma, at the same time!

Very strange. According to jonimitchell.com, Leslie Morris is the one who authorised the statement saying she was not in a coma!
